The confirmation given about the timeframe within which Ratzinger decided to resign and the key role intercontinental trips played in this – particularly the visit to Rio de Janeiro for WYD 2013, which Benedict XVI did not feel up to - are significant aspects. This excuse is so breathtakingly lame that it makes me wonder if Benedict is not sending some sort of a signal here. He quit the papacy because he couldn't make a plane trip??!!
WTH?!

If he is sending some sort of signal, he needs to quit wussyfooting around.
